GrowFood Carolina is moving! (in 2023)
A new home at 1814 Harmon Street
After 10 very productive and successful years of operations at 990 Morrison Drive, we are excited to announce the purchase of a new—and larger—location for GrowFood Carolina, our state’s first local food hub. Opening in spring 2023, we will bring our experience, relationships, and dedication to 1814 Harmon Street in Charleston.
Our new location will triple our current capacity for warehousing and distribution, which means more support for our farmers and more healthy, local food for all.
We connect small farmers to the growing local food movement, enabling more farms to thrive, supporting rural communities, and keeping land from being developed. By creating markets and providing crop planning, storage, and distribution services, GrowFood allows farmers to focus on what they do best—farming.
What began as an experiment is now successful because of our local community and generous supporters.
